Articles by BetterPhoto Instructors

Some views of often-seen monuments or scenes have become practically trite, says instructor Lynne Eodice in a new BetterPhoto article. Instead, take a little time to scout out unique vantage points that you haven't seen a dozen times before. 'When I teach Lightroom or Photoshop,' says BetterPhoto instructor Rob Sheppard, 'I make a big deal about setting blacks and checking whites. In fact, that is something I always do with every photo.'
